This notice is not a Request for Proposal/Quote or Bid. This sources sought is a market research tool to gain knowledge of potential qualified sources that will be used for planning purposes and to determine if potential small business sources exist to support the requirement. This information is not to be interpreted as a commitment by the Government. Participation in this effort is strictly voluntary with no cost or obligation to be incurred by the Government. 1.

Request that interested small businesses answer each RFI separately and respond to the specific requirements described in paragraph two (2) of the RFI being responded to. The program's objective is to provide potential contractual vehicle(s) for the Army to provide information systems engineering and information technology support services to United States Army Information Systems Engineering Command (USAISEC) and other federal agencies worldwide. Support may be required around the globe in challenging environments including remote locations, sometimes hostile territories, and highly secure facilities involving the highest level clearances. 2. REQUIREMENT: Information Systems Integration. Perform information systems integration. This includes the activities associated with establishing or enhancing the information system (hardware, software, security features, data, operations, and personnel) based upon a governing architecture. Information systems integration generally is conducted at the systems level. The nature of the information systems integration process requires a broad, high-level perspective to address: a. Developing objective and target system architecture and configurations conforming to DoD's most current Architectural Framework. b. Developing transition plans and strategies for migration of baseline information systems to the target and objective configurations. c. Developing, updating and maintaining DoD and Army Planning documents. Evolutionary changes to migration systems shall be governed by conformance to Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance and shall be maintained: (1) Within and across the sustaining base, theater/tactical, and strategic information environments; (2) Within geographic areas; and (3) Within commands/organizations/units. d. Performing assessments of information systems, architectures and networks to insure compliance with system requirements, and guidelines and policies contained in Command, Control, Communications, Computers, Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance and other documents identified in specific tasks. e. Providing planning support for information systems, architectures and networks through such efforts as system descriptions, cost/performance trade-off analyses, systems analyses, integration plans, white papers, and technical concept papers. f. Reviewing and validating proposed and existing system designs. g. Developing capital plant investment strategies that provide a sound, technical foundation for the programmatic plans. 3.
